Ten police officers who had initiated a legal challenge against their transfers ordered by the Inspector-General of Police (IGP) have officially withdrawn their lawsuit.
The officers informed the court of their decision to discontinue the case but retained the right to revisit the matter in the future if necessary.
This move brings a temporary pause to their opposition to the Police Administration’s transfer directive.
Spearheaded by Sergeant David Ojeyim, the group had originally sought a court injunction to halt their reassignment, arguing that the transfers were unjustified and imposed arbitrarily.
They claimed the directive disrupted their professional stability and did not comply with established administrative protocols of the police service.
Among the officers involved were Sergeant Prince Owusu Fayosey, Sergeant Seidu Essilfie, Sergeant Alex Abah, Corporal John Yao Adzimagbor, Corporal Michael Kwasi Avuyi, Corporal Huudu Muhammed Wumbe, Corporal Kabiru Mohammed, Corporal Hannah Antwi-Boasiako, and IC/Inspector Alexander Odoi.
The group expressed concerns about the fairness and transparency of the transfer process, calling for accountability from the Police Administration.
Although the case has been discontinued for now, the officer’s decision to preserve their right to reapply indicates their ongoing interest in seeking what they perceive as justice.
